Can a $50 Kawasaki Bayou be flipped to a $800 Profit.

The bayous were good machines that are cheap to fix as well as cheap to pick up. This one is being flipped for a nice profit!

I’ve never came across a Bayou that wouldn’t run with a little tinkering. They are probably the most well built and toughest quads ever produced. I know Honda has a good rep but I’ve owned everything and the build quality on the Bayous always impresses me. Just solid, simple, reliable and capable quads.

[@TheATVHustle]

They really are, I prefer the Honda recon over the bayou but the bayous are always a solid machine when running right.

[@tcbdboy4425]

A year later and this gives me hope with the bayou I just got that doesn't run

[@bigjay6743]

Those little bikes will go forever As long as you change your oil that bike will last a lifetime

[@TheATVHustle]

@@bigjay6743 that’s no joke. I’ve seen so many of these neglected but keep on moving.

[@bigjay6743]

Those seats are so easy to fix all you need is a heat gun.

[@TheATVHustle]

@@bigjay6743 I’ll have to give that a shot next time, I never thought about doing that.

just picked up red bayou today at storage auction hope i can get it started been sitting in a garage since 2006 looks almost new very few hours

[@TheATVHustle]

The bayou is bullet proof, I would bet it does run.

[@lispyryan2325]

i picked one up for $150 this weekend for my wife and daughter, it needs rings and smokes alot, but it ran like hell when we started it

[@TheATVHustle]

They are good machines and will last for many years if taken care of.

[@cannaj875]

How do you get something that cheap is it word of mouth like a friend of a friend or you see a flyer because I try Facebook at cheap quads are like $700 and they are super faded completely rusted blown up atv without regi/title.

[@rustywalleye2875]

Did you get it sold, man? I started watching your channel last night. I got a King Quad 300 delivered to my house for $300 bucks, yo! Going to be parting it and a couple of Yamaha Badger 80s out. Happy days

[@TheATVHustle]

Unfortunately due to a family emergency I didn’t have time to get it dropped off. I’m still deciding weather to sell local or in the next months auction.

[@rustywalleye2875]

@@TheATVHustle hope your emergency situation is better. Thanks for doing your videos. I didn't grow up knowing anything about engines and I didn't own a socket set until after college (unfortunately about 3/8 & 1/2 SAE set instead of metric as my first sets) Had to start doing a lot of my own vehicle work and have slowly been gaining knowledge over the past 7 years, which is about how long I have dabbled on Ebay. It became obvious to me at some point that things with engines sell better parted out but I haven't had the space for normal vehicles so it occurred to me to start looking for four wheelers a few weeks back. I can tell that you're disciplined enough to be self employed, which is not a natural thing for us folks that were brainwashed into working jobs to make money. I think that is a good topic for you to make a video on. Your channel should take off with subscribers and all that if you stick with making video content. Later!

[@MrAlternation]

how did you get a king quad for 300 delivered?! please help me lol

[@rustywalleye2875]

@@MrAlternation I thought it was a king quad! It turned out to be a 1987 lt-f4wd and it came with a 1999 king quad plastic that didn't fit. The guy had it listed for $200 and I told him that I wanted to buy it but I needed to ask .6 neighbor if I could borrow his truck because mine has problems. He offered to bring it to me for some extra money so I gave him an extra $100 bucks because he lives an hour and a half from me. I realized it wasn't a king quad because I could not get the front plastic to fit but it is the king quad's predecessor with all the features that make the king quad great!

[@pointzerotwo]

Unless this was a gift from a relative, you did not pick this up for $50. The wheels alone are worth $200, the body alone at least $100, and the engine, even if seized, $100. So, let's say $500. And if fixed up, $1500 to $2000.

[@TheATVHustle]

Nope just a guy I have bought other stuff from. I spend a lot of time tracking down deals. 90%of the time I won’t even buy the cheap bayous since they are a hard sale. There is no getting any more than $1600 for a bayou where I live.

[@pointzerotwo]

@@TheATVHustle You're on the side of good, keep up the good work. So glad I got a 250 awhile ago.

[@MrAlternation]

nice change of pace video

[@TheATVHustle]

Thanks! I enjoy flipping so I'll be doing more of these.

[@marksternberg9217]

What are you doing with your plastics ? They are so big shipping is brutal on ebay.

[@TheATVHustle]

We toss them in the dumpster unless they are nice enough to hang on to.

[@marksternberg9217]

If you buy a non running junker that has a cdi. Can you test them to see if there any good or is it a no sell because you don't know ?

[@TheATVHustle]

You can’t test them, I would say like 90% of what we buy has an obvious mechanical issue
